Charles Shaw Wines are currently only available in our stores where wine is sold.*

Happy Anniversary Charles Shaw!

Hard to believe that Charles Shaw Wines have been in our stores for 10 years. But it's true. Ten years since we first introduced Charles Shaw Wines at Trader Joe's. Ten years since the world went a bit bonkers for these $1.99* bottles of wine. In that time, we've sold about 600 million bottles of the various varietals. Yes, you read that right: 600 million bottles. Depending on what's available at any given time, you can expect to find Charles Shaw Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, and White Zinfandel in our wine section.

Somewhere along the way, these wines were dubbed “Two Buck Chuck.” We wish we could take the credit for that, but alas, some other scribe came up with that moniker. We do think we know why these wines have struck a chord—they've proven that wine doesn't need to be expensive to be good, drinkable wine. These are not expensive; they are good, and they're very drinkable.

We've been selling Charles Shaw Wines for $1.99* a bottle for ten years. Ten years! With the same price! So buy it by the bottle, or buy it by the case. No matter which varietal you choose, every bottle is the same $1.99* price, every day. Only at your neighborhood Trader Joe's.

They are $2.99 ea. Trade Joe next door me is selling 'em like anything.

Not bad at all. As a fact of matter, very good for the price. One of the best in low price range category.

Kind of reverse engineering, but which spirit would go well with sparkling apple cider.

Vodka goes well with anything. I think rum or gin should go well too with apple cider, with some sparkle in it. And if you want to play it safe, some white wine would practically turn it into champagne

Thanks. Rum it is then. I tasted Apple cider in Costco sometime back and thought it was good, but would be a waste without any spirit.

Sparkling apple cider is the stuff that non-alcoholic wines are made... so the word sparking was key to your post and my reply. Rum with a coke-like soda will always be fun to drink. That's why I suggested it. My favorite soda for rum is pineapple soda and if that is not available, then coke or pepsi. Have never tried with apple cider, sparkling or otherwise

Looks like there is pomegranate also in this cider. A bit high rum content made it taste like Benadryl. I had to dilute it with more cider to get off that. Now switched to rum with water. Goes well with 8F (-13C)
